We stayed in the villa back in September, we were 13 in all, kind of a family reunion. No one was disappointed. The house and property are magnificent and exactly as portrayed on the
website. Our host Giuditta, was knowledgeable, friendly and willing to do whatever it took to ensure we had an enjoyable stay, welcoming us with a bottle of homemade wine.
The house has all its original charm but has been updated where necessary, specifically the bathrooms and kitchen. The kitchen in particular leaves you wanting for nothing. It has a modern fridge and range and all the pots, pans and utensils any gourmet could ask for along with enough dinnerware and glassware to feed an army.
The grounds clean and well-kept and although it was to cool to use the pool it was crystal clear. We made pizza in the outdoor oven, which was stocked with wood and had all the necessary utensils, as well as Steak Florentine on the outdoor grill.
The location is very private yet a short drive, or even a walk, to town and the train station. From here we made day trips to Florence, Sienna, Arezzo and several wineries.
A final bit of advice would be to opt for the authentic Tuscan meal they offer. Very reasonable and includes paired local wine for course.
Highly recommended!

As a couple we find it very difficult to find suitable accommodation for two. Casina Paradiso was perfect with adequate space , pool and views. The owners were charming and very helpful.

One of the best properties we have ever been (and we rent one every year). The setting, the character, the caretaker... everything is special in Macennere!

Alleinstehendes Toskanaferienhaus mit schöner Aussicht, groß, geräumig und schön eingerichtet. Gepflegter privater Pool, gute Parkmöglichkeit sowie große Veranda. Sehr freundlicher, flexibler und zuvorkommender Besitzer, aber spricht nahezu kein Englisch oder Deutsch, Verständigung dennoch trotzdem gut möglich. Weiter zu empfehlen!

We loved casa Lina it gave us independence with style. Clean and spacious and the benefit of 2 bathrooms was the best. The décor although dated reminded us of how they lived in the 19th century. The mosaic tiles, and the old fire oven, even though it didn't work was special. The close proximity to the shops was a bonus as we could have a look over the front balcony to see if they were open or not. I would recommend Casa Lina to my friends

We had a fantastic time here. The owners were so friendly & welcoming, really making us feel at home. It's such a beautiful place too and there was so much for our 18mth old old to do. We'd definitely go back

The villa was stunningly beautiful!
It was not only one of the most well kept accomodation we have stayed in, but we got lost on arrival (our bad navigating), and owner even came and picked us up.
The owners went out of their way to accomodate and make our stay the most memoriable and best experience we have ever had, we are so grateful.
